Apache 1.3b6 binary distribution. UserTrack_Module & Status_module loaded Cookie Tracking on >Description: The first entry of a client is truncated in the log, thus: user1 - - etc user1.foo.bar - - etc user2 - - etc user2.foo.bar - - etc It's not a serious problem, but it messes up log analysis. >How-To-Repeat: Run 1.3b6 on NT, and switch on UserTrack, and examin your access log files. Even if it's supposed to do this, it makes log analysis hard. >Fix: No, but switing cookie-tracking off makes the problem go away. >Audit-Trail: State-Changed-From-To: open-feedback State-Changed-By: coar State-Changed-When: Mon Jun 1 04:03:19 PDT 1998 State-Changed-Why: 1. Does this happen with 1.3b7? 2. Is this the cookie log that's getting confused, or one of the main server logs? (You said access_log, but your example looks odd.) 3. Can you attach some actual complete example lines from your damaged access log? Be sure to Cc to make sure your message gets attached to this report.

Does this happen with 1.3b7? Don't know yet. Given the CGI bugs with 1.3b7 I have avoided it so far. However I could install it for you to test it. >2.
